TPMS builder plugin #1

Hello
That would be great to extend your ABQ plugin to create geometry from TPMS équations , then mesh them , computing élastic properties, and finally build a new material with those properties (homogenized material, as nTop does).

Yes, it's a great idea, thank you for your attention.
As you certainly know, there are two general types of lattice structures. One type, TPMS structures, as you mentioned, are created mathematically in a way that avoids self-intersecting surfaces. The other type is strut-based structures, including the BCC structure I discussed in this project, which cannot be constructed using TPMS equations.
Therefore, even assuming that the valuable plugin you mentioned is created, homogenizing strut-based lattice structures, such as the BCC lattice structure, will still require separate plugins.
